"The Pursuit of Happyness" is a Spectacular Film About Hope

"The Pursuit of Happyness" is a spectacular film about hope. It has Chris Gardner, played by Will Smith, trying to get by with the little money he has. He invests in a device called a "Bone Density Scanner" to sell to doctors who need them. When this idea is not working, his wife leaves him and lets Chris take care of their son, Christopher Jr., played by Jaden Smith. Chris tries his best to take care of his son, and also teach him life lessons along the way. He then tries to get a steady job by going through six months of training as a stockbroker, and he has to work as hard as he can to prove to his son, his wife and himself that he can be a great father.

This film was great for Will Smith. He is an amazing actor that does not always get recognition mainly because of his early career. He was a rapper, and on sitcom but regardless he has been in some incredible films. Including, "I am Legend" "Independence Day" and the "Legend of Bagger Vance." He is incredible in this film, and this is clearly his best film. Also Jaden Smith and Thandie Newton, are great minor characters in this film that help the film show how great it really is. This film really shows if you really work as your hard as you can you can achieve great things.

Grade = 88/100 = B+
